What's your biggest failure?
Mine: My level 20 warrior needed bonus in Great Northern Wall so I went in, needed a snack and when I got back I had been killed by a shatter gargoyle on NM. That was pretty embaressing lol XD

This isn't really a fail on my part, but I was involved. This is paraphrasing a conversation that occurred yesterday.
Guildmate: Are any of the pve allegiance skills good?
Me: Save Yourselves is pretty much an "I win" button. You should at least try it. The mesmer one is useful too.
Guildmate: SY doesn't even affect me, only party members. Why would I ever want that?
Me (to myself): RAAAAAAGGGGGGGGGEEEEEEEE

I have failed many times, I also have a very bad memory so I can't remember all my epic fails.
The most recent one that comes to mind is Death pacting someone on our midline, when we were taking pressure, about 10 seconds before the base res in our base. To make matters worse they spiked him about 5 seconds after the base and so they got a double time kill.
GG.

1 v 1 necro fight in RA (rest of our teams = dead) him a curse necro, and me some crappy blood build i put togeather. Ofc the majority of his curses were anti melee.
Anyway, we were both around 40hp left, i probably would of won if i decided to wand him, but no, i hit a skill that sacrificed health, boom, sacked myself, and 2 different people whispering me calling me a noob lol.
EDIT:
Good point. But i think most of my skills sacrificed health lol. So either way i was probably screwed.
Perhaps i should of took a res sig into that fight XD

thinking that a Wa/Mo endurance hammer warrior based around endure pain/defy pain was actually good! God I was such a noob.
what made this worse was that I used throughout most of my GW experience!

Spending an hour on FoW HM (not speed clear) with a bunch of noobs, 2 quests left and we killed the spirit lord or whatever. I spammed, "I'm attacking..." and I thought we were suppose to kill him (first fow run 
) They told me don't joke idiot... unfortunately... I wasn't joking. They didn't call me noob because I was a badass healer

Testing out an Assassin for the first time in FA but not being able to kill anything (I usually play caster so I forgot the NPCs are anti melee). Wait that's not a fail really, but I can't think of one.

My last one that I can remember:
Buying new 15k armour.
Deciding to apply a Major Vigor rune to it.
Equipping it.
Seeing that I have insanely low HP with it.
Figuring out I just applied Major Vigor to my old armour, overwriting a Sup Vigor rune I had on it.
Deciding that the new armour looks like crap and salvaging it.
GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO ME!

One of the mistakes we made with a guild team was when a handfull of old guildies returned from their current game.
We decided to go into Urgoz for some fun. However, the few of us who kept playing forgot that those other guildies didn't play for a long time and while being experienced didn't know of the Rebirth change. So we had no corpse travel skill, preventing us from continuing.
I make big and tiny mistakes all the time. Yesterday I was stupid and decided to walk to a chest in Arachni's HM. All of a sudden pop-ups all over me. Result was a team whipe. The spot was too close to the res shrine, so we were busy staying alive for the next couple of mins, wasting some DP removers.
When we played DoA HM I put up consumables a couple of times while someone wasn't loaded yet. In PvP I missed some infuses, not because I was too late but because I was infusing the wrong person. Merched some really valuable items by accident.
Oh, making mistakes isn't that bad, not learning from them is really bad.

Man, Whats my biggest fail? Thats hard as I'm pro at failing. Lets see.
1. Vending req8 super rare weapon/shield skins.
2. Playing 8 rated hero battles and winning once.
3. Saying in all chat in the hero battle waiting lobby (Damn there are a lot of perma sins tonight) Que lol's.
4. Farming LB points in NM AFTER I had already beaten NF. Did that for a day.
5. Getting a free crystalline blade/sword from some dude who quit and vending it before I knew what it was worth back in the Proph days. (I think it looks ugly)
6. Passing up a Unded Kunna for 20k (SLAP SLAP!) I still don't have one!
7. Losing my internet for over 6 months and missing out on 2008 festivals. (I wanted a werewolf mask!
8. Still not knowing any good builds for solo farming.
9. Never played in any Elite missions (factions) or FoW.
10. Killing ice imps and dying after a icy sword dropped but before I picked it up
11. Giving away 32 pigs 3 months before Celestial year of the pig.
12. Never entering in the tournament predictions and missing out on all the possible free loot!
13. Playing Fiesta on outspark.com when I could have been playing guildwars. (Recently retired from fiesta.
)
14. Never owning any elite armor.
15. Accidently salvaging an elite kurzick helmet for the rune forgetting that character armor and hero armor are not the same. Lost my helm and some self respect.
16. Taking over a year to beat prophecies. (I finished prophecies after factions and nightfall!)
17. Selling 13 varesh mini's for 1k each.
18. Becoming addicted to collecting crap on guildwars, like mini pets and event items.
19. Loving a game I'm not very good at.
20. Listing my 19 biggest fails.

I have never finished a single campaign.
My guildmates are currently "helping" (dragging...XD) me through Nightfall, though. Just two missions left!

- When I was a n00b, I had a ruby drop for me in post-searing Ascalon from one of those stone elementals. I didn't know what it was, so I merched it.
- When I was a n00b, a Mursaat Hammer dropped for me and it was instantly became baby that I used for about a year. Dee-dee-dee, I didn't fully understand what inscriptions were (and that Tyrian items didn't have them...), and one day I tried to salvage the weapon mod off of it. Of course, I just ended up destroying the entire hammer, which broke me.
- Saccing myself to death on my Ritualist by trying to use Generous was Tsungrai when I already had low HP.
Other than that, no really big fails. I'm just a boring, casual player.
